Every year I participate in the MS march, March for Dimes march for babies (oops, I have to sign up), Breast cancer march , HIV/AIDS etc. Today was the MS march and the turn out was excellent. Just thought I should share some pics with you.

For those living in the U.S.A., I really think you should support these marches. Even if you don't donate, your presence means alot.

Much love

Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (abbreviated MS, also known as disseminated sclerosis or encephalomyelitis disseminata) is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system, leading to demyelination.[1] Disease onset usually occurs in young adults, and it is more common in females.[2] It has a prevalence that ranges between 2 and 150 per 100,000.[3] MS was first described in 1868 by Jean-Martin Charcot.[
